THE ANARCHISTS CASE.
CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-[speclal.l .l-Gener-
nj Roger A. Pryor was quoted ln Thurs
DAYS dispateees as saying that he was
undecided Just what form of appeal he
would take in the Anarchist case, but
aitty of the Illinois law, regarding the
construction Of the jury. "rhis law
has been in operation since 1874" said
General Pryor, "and has not yet been
passed upon by the Supreme Court" II
haven't ANYTHING to say about the
matter" said Mr. Grinnell, Il have al
ready said that the Anarchist case can
not be carried into the United States
mDreme court on any pretext" The con.
stitutlOnallty Of the law has never been
called in question BEFORE" said Judge
JamIssOn, Il hRVs not read the full re
port Of the Supreme Court decisions In
She Anarchists case, lE may be that
exceptions were taken during the trial
before Judge Gary on this point. II
such exceptions were taken the Supreme
Court certainly acted upon them. If no
such exceptions were taken during the
trial of the case. The act itself is the
law under which all our juries were
drawn, and II at some future time II
should prove unconstitutional 1t would,
of course, have very wide spread In
nuenee upon Illinois courts In general.
It is certainly vital point"
Melville W. Fuller said 1t was i'm
possible to tell from the dispatch what
defence General Pryor wOuld make. He
had looked up the laws Of 1874 and
could find nothing to base an opinion

THE YACHT THISTLE.
NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-[SDecisl. The |
official measurements recently made OF |
the Thistle give her five seconds time
allowance over the Volunteer. This |
was somewhat Of a surprise to General
Paine, as he expected to allow fully q |
minute. The Thistle is over two feet |
longer and is also deeper and heavier but 1
the Volunteer has three feet more beam.
The time allowance Is figured out by
a rule involving the said area and the
length, and this computation is to the
advantage Of the Thistle.
